SSF Construction Alert: Sept 29-Oct 5th

These projects are City infrastructure or third party construction projects that may affect your commute in South San Francisco.

CALTRAIN ELECTRIFICATION AND STATION IMPROVEMENT PROJECT

A temporary lane and sidewalk closure along Poletti Way between East Grand Avenue and Corporate Drive continues in order to facilitate street improvements as part of the Caltrain South San Francisco Station Improvement Project. One lane of Poletti Way will remain accessible to local and through traffic during construction. Please pay attention to additional signage when using Poletti Way.

After the completion of the South San Francisco Station Project, Poletti Way will become a two-way street, with the Southbound lane being reserved for buses picking up passengers from the new South San Francisco Station.

Please visit the Caltrain website to sign-up for weekly construction updates. If you have questions or comments about the upcoming work, please call the dedicated Project Hotline at 650.399.9659.

GRAND BOULEVARD INITIATIVE PROJECT (El Camino Real)

Early Traffic Alert:

Roadway improvements along El Camino Real are scheduled to start on October 8, 2018. Work is divided into two sections along El Camino Real:

1. El Camino Real at McLellan Drive to 300 feet south of Kaiser Way (north location).

Commuters may experience brief delays between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. while work is underway. The Contractor will make every attempt to keep a minimum of two lanes open in each direction during the construction period. Updated traffic impacts will be noticed prior to the start of construction.

The San Bruno Canal Bridge remains closed due to the rapidly deteriorating condition of the piles supporting the bridge. Construction to replace the bridge has begun and the new bridge is expected to open by the end of 2018. The City apologizes for the inconvenience this work has caused and is working as quickly as possible to address safety concerns. Public safety is the number one priority. Thank you for your continued patience.

Changeable message signs and detour signs are in place. These traffic control devices will be in operation for the duration of the project. Bike path and emergency access will be maintained but vehicles will be rerouted. Please follow all signage and safety personnel instructions at all times.

Please note that in an effort to help with traffic congestion, especially in the peak afternoon hours, construction traffic flaggers are present Monday through Friday between 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
